| Genesis /Bereishit 13:14 | And G-d said to Avram after he had parted from Lot: lift your eyes and see from the place where you are, to the north and towards the east (Negev), the south and the west (sea): | וַיהֹוָה אָמַר אֶל־אַבְרָם אַחֲרֵי הִפָּרֶד־לוֹט מֵעִמּוֹ שָׂא נָא עֵינֶיךָ וּרְאֵה מִן־הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּה שָׁם צָפֹנָה וָנֶגְבָּה וָקֵדְמָה וָיָמָּה׃ |
| 13:15 | For all the land that you see I will give to your offspring forever. | כִּי אֶת־כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּה רֹאֶה לְךָ אֶתְּנֶנָּה וּלְזַרְעֲךָ עַד־עוֹלָם׃ |
| 13:16 | I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth. Just as a person cannot count the dust, in the same way your offspring will not be countable. | ְשַׂמְתִּי אֶת־זַרְעֲךָ כַּעֲפַר הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר אִם־יוּכַל אִישׁ לִמְנוֹת אֶת־עֲפַר הָאָרֶץ גַּם־זַרְעֲךָ יִמָּנֶה׃ |
| 13:17 | Get up and walk the breadth and width of the land, for I will give it to you. | קוּם הִתְהַלֵּךְ בָּאָרֶץ לְאׇרְכָּהּ וּלְרׇחְבָּהּ כִּי לְךָ אֶתְּנֶנָּה׃ |

| 15:1 | After these things, G-d’s words came to Avram in a dream, saying: Do not fear, Avram. I am protecting you. Your reward will be very great. | אַחַר הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה הָיָה דְבַר־יְהֹוָה אֶל־אַבְרָם בַּמַּחֲזֶה לֵאמֹר אַל־תִּירָא אַבְרָם אָנֹכִי מָגֵן לָךְ שְׂכָרְךָ הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד׃ |
| 15:2 | And Avram said: L-rd G-d, what could you give me? I Have no children, and Eliezer manages my household (so anything you give me would be wasted). | וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְרָם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה מַה־תִּתֶּן־לִי וְאָנֹכִי הוֹלֵךְ עֲרִירִי וּבֶן־מֶשֶׁק בֵּיתִי הוּא דַּמֶּשֶׂק אֱלִיעֶזֶר׃ |
| 15:3 | And he said as you did not give me children, the manager of my household will inherit from me. | וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְרָם הֵן לִי לֹא נָתַתָּה זָרַע וְהִנֵּה בֶן־בֵּיתִי יוֹרֵשׁ אֹתִי׃ |
| 15:4 | And then G-d said to him as follows: he will not inherit from you, as your offspring will inherit from you. | וְהִנֵּה דְבַר־יְהֹוָה אֵלָיו לֵאמֹר לֹא יִירָשְׁךָ זֶה כִּי־אִם אֲשֶׁר יֵצֵא מִמֵּעֶיךָ הוּא יִירָשֶׁךָ׃ |
| 15:5 | And he took him outside, and said: Look at the sky and count the stars, if you can count them. And he said so will be your offspring. | וַיּוֹצֵא אֹתוֹ הַחוּצָה וַיֹּאמֶר הַבֶּט־נָא הַשָּׁמַיְמָה וּסְפֹר הַכּוֹכָבִים אִם־תּוּכַל לִסְפֹּר אֹתָם וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ כֹּה יִהְיֶה זַרְעֶךָ׃ |
| 15:6 | And he believed in G-d, and in His righteousness. | וְהֶאֱמִן בַּיהֹוָה וַיַּחְשְׁבֶהָ לּוֹ צְדָקָה׃ |
| 15:7 | And He said to him: I am G-d who took you out of Ur Kasdim, to give you this land to inherit. | וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו אֲנִי יְהֹוָה אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִיךָ מֵאוּר כַּשְׂדִּים לָתֶת לְךָ אֶת־הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת לְרִשְׁתָּהּ׃ |
Ingredients as Shown:
- Grapes, cut in half
Instructions:
OK, I wanted to get star fruit, but the stores were all out. Yes, these are just sliced grapes.
For this snack, if you (like me) cannot find star fruit, slice grapes in half, or even slivers. Let them arrange them in constellations, pretend they are looking up at the sky.
If you can add in a sliced star fruit, all the better!
- Arrange grapes in stars, constellations… whatever you like!
